The Implications Of National Security Safeguards On The Commercialization Of Remote Sensing Imagery, Youssef Sneifer
The Implications Of National Security Safeguards On The Commercialization Of Remote Sensing Imagery, Youssef Sneifer
Seattle University Law Review
This Comment offers a critique of the national security restrictions contained in the United States policy and regulations and the uncertainty they inject into the commercialization of remote sensing imagery. After providing a brief technical description of remote sensing technology and the market realities associated with remote sensing imagery, this Comment analyzes the legislation and regulations affecting the private sector's commercialization and dissemination of remote sensing imagery with a special emphasis on national security concerns. Specifically, it reviews the Clinton Administration's policy with regard to the commercialization of remote sensing imagery, tracing its origins to the international obligations of the …
Gattmembership For China?, Donald C. Clarke
Gattmembership For China?, Donald C. Clarke
Seattle University Law Review
This Article will explore some of the conflicts between the premises of the GATT and China's current economic, legal, and political structure, as well as the extent to which China's institutions are moving in a GATT-compatible direction. It will conclude that while GATT membership would in itself promote the reforms that would make China's institutions more compatible with the GATT, such reforms are the object of considerable domestic opposition.
Free Trade As An Extremist Ideology: The Case Of Nafta, Robert W. Benson
Free Trade As An Extremist Ideology: The Case Of Nafta, Robert W. Benson
Seattle University Law Review
This article purports that free tradism has become such a classic extremist ideology, just as, until recently, Marxism-Leninism was. Free tradism is fairly described as fitting the two criteria that characterize extremist ideologies: (1) their adherents are oblivious to cognitive dissonance contradicting their analyses, and (2) their adherents are willing to plunge themselves and others into great risks in the name of the ideology. This article adduces evidence in these two categories, using NAFTA as an example, analyzing concrete issues of trade theory, jobs, the environment, human rights, and democracy.
Human Rights And Most-Favored-Nation Tariff Rates For Products From The People's Republic Of China, Randall Green
Human Rights And Most-Favored-Nation Tariff Rates For Products From The People's Republic Of China, Randall Green
Seattle University Law Review
Because there is an historical link between the economic power possessed by any group of people and the political rights enjoyed by that group, this Article argues that the best way for the United States to promote human rights in China is to assist China's economic development. This argument is supported by logic (e.g., demonstration of cause and effect) as well as by example (e.g., the recent histories of Korea and Taiwan). Part II of this Article takes a detailed look at what MFN status really means and looks at the history of U.S. grants of MFN status to China. …
The New Law Of Asset Securitization In Japan, Michael T. Kawachi
The New Law Of Asset Securitization In Japan, Michael T. Kawachi
Seattle University Law Review
This Article discusses one financial product developed in the United States and expected to develop in Japan as a result of recent legislation adopted there. The Article examines the high degree of regulation of this new financial product under that legislation and concludes that such regulation, while common in Japan, will delay the full development of the market in Japan. This Article begins with a description of an important financial tool first developed in the United States, the securitization of financial assets. The Article next examines several aspects of the new Japanese legislation and reviews the provisions of that legislation. …

In addition, the editors have included a spirited defense of NAFTA by Ms. Rebecca Reynolds Bannister. To set the stage, I offer a few comments on each article below.
The Mexican Market And Nafta, Rebecca Reynolds Bannister
The Mexican Market And Nafta, Rebecca Reynolds Bannister
Seattle University Law Review
In the face of European integration and strategic partnerships in the Pacific Rim, it is vitally important for the United States to strengthen our ties with our North American commercial partners and with the rest of the Western Hemisphere. NAFTA is an historic agreement. It is an ambitious effort to eliminate barriers to agricultural, manufacturing, and services trade, to remove investment restrictions, and to protect intellectual property rights. And, NAFTA is the first agreement in the history of U.S. trade policy that directly addresses envi- ronmental concerns. United States' strategic policy must be focused on that which builds security for …
Introduction: Mexican Perspectives On Economic, Political And Cultural Implications Of Free Trade, Henry Mcgee
Introduction: Mexican Perspectives On Economic, Political And Cultural Implications Of Free Trade, Henry Mcgee
Faculty Articles
Professor McGee introduces two papers submitted to the 1990 UCLA School of Law seminar entitled Law and Development in Latin America. The first paper, written before the onset of negotiations for a free trade treaty between Mexico and the United States, deals with the then new regulations of the Mexican Secretary of the Treasurer (Secretaria de la Hacienda) designed to sweep away a labyrinth of rules and procedures which had traditionally vexed foreign investors who dealt with the Mexican bureaucracy. The second paper concerns the irony which inheres in Mexico's treatment of Central American immigration, a problem relatively undiscussed in …
